Plain 12 Rosette

The Plain 12 rosette is a 12-sided polygon rosette. Some turners call this a "puffy" rosette because of the shape of the rosette, but at the target diameter on the object, it will yield a polygon with straight sides.

Aspect Value Comments
Pattern Straight Line
Pattern Repeated 12 times Pattern at the target Diameter
Target Diameter
for Rosette Design 		2”

At this diameter on the object being cut, the cuts will produce a 12-sided polygon.

  • A smaller diameter on the object results in surfaces which are concave between the apexes.

  • A larger diameter on the object results in surfaces which are convex between the apexes.

  • An amplitude adjuster can be used to modify these effects.
